Sharing in God's Presence

Sharing in God's Presence

Sharing in God's Presence means far more than ""getting saved"" and experiencing God's blessing in our lives. As believers, his presence becomes a very personal part of who we are and what we do--God actually shares himself with us The language that we use often fails to capture the depths of God's nature penetrating ours, the fullness of his Spirit permeating our hearts, and the innermost infusion of his presence in our lives. But the truth couldn't be more intimate: ""The person who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with him"" (1 Corinthians 6:17) This book is an invitation to share in God's presence by allowing God to share himself with you. God wants everyone to share in his embrace. As we accept our responsibility for prayer, ministry, and even revival, we share in the very precious dynamic of give and response that's involved in an intimate walk with Jesus Christ. For a general readership, this book is a reworking of material from the second half of the author's academic work God's Absence and the Charismatic Presence. ""Too many view God as an observer, sternly watching us from a distance. Roy Kindelberger flips that view on its head. Not only is God present with us, but Kindelberger reveals God's presence as a source of loving transformation. This book weaves together a theology of divine presence, while inviting readers to respond to the God lovingly present to us."" --Thomas Jay Oord, author of The Uncontrolling Love of God: An Open and Relational Account of Providence ""Finally, we can hold in our hands a book that clearly illustrates the foundational truth that has been taught by the church from the beginning--although not always emphasized enough--that the essence of what it means to be a Christian is to have a direct, personal relationship with Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and share in God's presence. Thank you, brother Roy, for your rich insights "" --Joseph F. Wehrer, Regional Representative for Bridges for Peace, and Bible teacher ""This book helpfully frames the biblical story and the Christian life in terms of God's desire to be present with us. Everything from the atonement to the gifts of the Spirit are construed via God's presence to show that God aspires to share the divine life with us in open-ended and fully relational ways."" --John Sanders, Professor of Religious Studies, Hendrix College Roy D. Kindelberger serves as senior pastor at Covenant Church East in western Pennsylvania where he resides with his wife. He is currently a doctoral candidate at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary and is the author of the groundbreaking theological work God's Absence and the Charismatic Presence (2017).

Lost Canyons of the Green River

Lost Canyons of the Green River

Roy D. Webb

University of Utah Press,U.S.

After more than 50 years of plans to dam the Green River, it finally happened in 1963 as part of the Colorado River Storage Project. Today many people enjoy boating and fishing on the resultant Flaming Gorge reservoir, but few know about what lies under the water. Unlike Glen Canyon, Flaming Gorge has received little attention. In Lost Canyons of the Green River, Roy Webb takes the reader back in time to discover what lay along this section of the Green River before the Flaming Gorge Dam was built, and provides a historical account of this rather neglected section of the Colorado River system. A historian and a lifetime lover of rivers, Webb has spent decades exploring the region, digging into archives, and running the length of the Green River. The book chronicles the history that is most closely linked to the river and its bottomlands, sharing the stories of those who travelled the Green through Flaming Gorge and the other canyons now flooded by the reservoir, as well as those who lived, farmed, trapped, or ranched along its banks. In depicting the river of the past, Webb considers his book “a guidebook for a river you can no longer run.”

This is the story of five talking dogs--four living and one dead. It contains about seventy-two thousand words. The story deals with how these canines react to the human world, its rules, and its way of life. Although this is a book of fantasy, it portrays how the dogs might interact with the humans. The dogs try to figure out what makes the humans tick in the manner they do. They are certainly an odd duck species. The story reveals how the dogs live for the moment, not concerned with the future. Meanwhile, the humans live for the future, which may never come. While the dogs are prepared for the next life, the humans are definitely not prepared. The dogs know where they are going. The humans think they are going to one place but are really going to another. It's a story of love, compassion, relationships, endurance, dependence, and independence.The main characters are five dogs: Runner, a greyhound, the leader of the pact Danny, a greyhound, deceased and spiritual leader and earthly advisor Vinney, a whippet and risk-taking lunatic that acts first and thinks later Doggie, a treeing walker coonhound and cocker spaniel mix and an immigrant from West Virginia who is educated and rationalPeanut Butter, a pug and beagle mix that is naive and uneducated except for four months in a biology class.Danny, the dead one, communicates with the Almighty frequently. The Almighty informs Danny about the dogs' next adventure as to benefits and hazards. Danny relays the info to Runner. On every adventure, the dogs run against the grain of the law. The Almighty makes sure the dogs never get into trouble. He is an accessory to their crimes, before and after the act. The dogs seem to be invulnerable to prosecution, thanks to the Almighty's playing interference for the dogs.

This story deals with a retired sewer plant worker who finds a kitten abandoned at the plant. With the aid of the veterinarian and good nursing care, he manages to bring the kitten back into a state of good health. The main characters are Alex Yates and a talking cat named Dexter that is addicted to LAND O'LAKES cheese, has an IQ of 162, and is also a male chauvinist feline. The story reveals how Dexter guides and directs Alex through the trials of using his talents and gifts for the common good. Alex does this by leaping into the bodies of people and actually becoming them. Many times Dexter has to order Alex to leave a body because he's becoming completely absorbed into the new personality.The writing deals with love, despair, heartache, dependence, and independence. The story reveals to the reader that people mistakenly live for tomorrow while forgetting about today. Although at first Dexter is not allowed to violate man's free will, he inadvertently skirts around the issue by becoming a police officer for the Culpeper Police Department.In the end, as Dexter believes that his job is done, the story has a shocking ending, which backfires right back at Dexter. This omniscient cat is in for a shock of his own.This is a sequel to Cliff Zane: Guilty as Charged.Reflective words inferred in the writing: We are all born with talents that are gifts from God. We cannot earn or buy them. They are a gift. We all have different gifts. Some have many. Some have few. In the next life we shall be measured by what we did with our gifts. We don't get to keep what we have. We're supposed to give it away.
